GAIT & MOTION CLINICS
Foot, hip and back pain is commonly a result of poor biomechanics, often stemming from the feet. An effective intervention to help correct these issues and alleviate pain are bespoke foot orthotics.
Traditionally, these have been prescribed by a medical professional using a static scan or plaster cast to provide the foot shape, along with their visual opinion of an individual’s gait, but times are changing.
Gait and Motion Clinics are the UK’s largest network of private healthcare practices which offer dynamic Footscan technology and Phits 3D-Printed Insoles.
Whether you are a runner, competing in sport or just want to live and walk pain-free, these specialist clinics help to reduce injury risk, aid rehabilitation, and improve performance.
Taking a Fresh Approach
Phits have revolutionised the prescription of insoles by considering a fundamental measurement that has previously been overlooked – human movement.
As part of the assessment, you complete an advanced gait analysis using footscan technology which monitors your foot mechanics to identify any asymmetries or abnormalities.
This provides data that simply cannot be seen by eye or on a treadmill.

The footscan intuitively translates this dynamic date to the Phits insole design to complement the knowledge of the clinician.
Phits are less that half the weight of traditional orthotics, accurate to 0.1mm and exact replicas can be produced if required. There are also key environmental implications of this digital process; as foam impression boxes, plaster casts and paper prescriptions are all a thing of the past.
Due to the unique, dynamic nature of the design, there’s no surprise why Phits have taken the elite athlete world by storm; as worn by every female British Marathon Champion for the last 5 years!
